Dunno what year your truck is, but for my 86 I just bought one at Schucks for $15.99.
Part # FF161

Print this page from their website and take it with you. They'll match the web price - otherwise they'll charge you $25 for it - that's the in-store price.....
If yours is a different year you'll have to look it up on their site for yourself

Print that web page and take it to your local Schucks/Checker/Kragen with $16 and you'll be all set......

For $16 your probably getting a standard starter relay not the HD relay required. Get the #s off the one on your controller and cross ref it.
Should look like this one....

Ummm, that one looks just like the one I linked - and both of them look just like the one I took off my truck.
I searched a couple of parts sites - Partsamerica and Napa - and found a $16 one and a couple of others on each site in the $25-$35 range, and every one was a different brand. If it were the wrong part (a starter relay) I'd think there would be two different ones of the same brand - one cheap and one expensive - wouldn't you?
In fact, [/b]this one [/b]was $25 (in store price), it was only discounted online. I may be wrong, and if I am I'll be replacing it and eating some crow soon. But I've found that parts prices can and do vary TREMENDOUSLY from brand to brand, and the old "you get what you pay for" adage isn't always the case. A lot of times you just OVER pay for a brand name......
